Fannick Jackson, eenman, unemployed, was brought before Mr Pollock in the Pulico Court to-day, charged, at the instance of Mr Moir, Superintendent of to Builor's flouse, with remaining behind his ship, the J.

Blackie, a British sailing ship trading between Bengkong and New York. He was to go on board on the 28th and received $18 in advanca The ship left yesterday morning and defondant could not be found till last night. A runner had heen search- ing for him aver since the 28th to put him on board.

Defendant returned to the Sailor's Home last night. He was quito sober, and said he had been wandering in the bush' for four days. The defendant stated to the Magistrats that he was ill on the morning that he had to go on board, but he had no intention of remaining de- hind. On account of being so ill, howover, he bupt out of the way. Next day he wont to the Home and told the ranner, whom lu saw there, that he wie too ill to go vo board Ho said the same to Me Moir afterwards, who threatened to have him urrosted. Defondant took an opportunity to clear out and remained away till the ship left. He had been drinking hard and was suffering from the effects of it. He had apont all his advance in the public-bouace the morning after he gut it. His Worship imposed a fine of $10, with the alternative of 14 days' hard labour.

Under these circum. stances the Company authorised the Com- missioner of Customs at Canton to wire Peking that they were willing to hold them. selv en responsible for any fine not exceeding 500 Tl. The result of this was that the Poutan was freed from the interdiction and will resume running to Canton to-morrow evening. The Company are making careful investigation into the whole allkir with a view of discovering whether any of their servanta are implicated. They bare, we believe, gained one impertant point from the Customs people-that the latter will no longer employ the Company's watchigen as spies and hold out such in- ducements to them as to lead them to give the information to the Customs rather than to their own employers. This system raised the suspicion, rightly or wrongly, that the Custome people were moro anzions to get cases than to suppress smuggling. The Steamboat Company bare, of course, every interest in suppressing illegitimate trado as they are the loser in every way; and if the Customs poople would co-operato with them, smuggling cught to be reduced be a stall compass.

That I give way to no one in 185 admiration of the work done by Mesare Price and

Orange (under Sir Robert Rawlinson) in conticction with the Tytem Water Supply, but I do object to the statement that the Water Works have cost the Colony ne more than £169,096.1.5 (usther the

'pencil).

That all calculations of the cost of Water Works at Home are based upon the com- pletion of the whole works, and these include the diatribution of the water to the people to be supplied. That the reasonable and sensible remarks

made by Mr Wadehouse disclose the fact that the new water supply will not very inaterially affect the ments available for tire extinction, er at least tho personnel of the Fire Brigade.

That the apinion given by the Fever Com

mission, that by and by the Pokfulam water supply will become an undesirable one,' deserves very scrious consideration, That I notice the Surveyor General gave a flat denial to the story that there were fungar growths in the reservoir--or con- duit; although, considering the soures of my information, I think a more detailed explanation is decidedly necessary. That the expenditure of $35,000 on filter beda at Pokfulam is suficient proof both of the necessity for purification, and the desire on Mr Price's part to prevent this supply from becoming an undesirablo .core,"

That this is not surprising, because, if the Pokfulam supply were condemued, the Tytam water would have to be pomped up to the higher levels. That, as the march of the European re-

sidente is upward, from sheer necessity, such a possibility, becomes a very serious

maller.

That the complaint made by Mr Layton, that the Finance Committee were called

upon to vote large turns in total ignor alice of how there were to be expended, received an unsaual corroboration from the fact that a raport actually existed; which explained the whole thing,' and yet that it had not been deemed necessary to lay it on the table.

That the sower-smells that now begin to aszart themselves as if they really meant it ought to lead the unofficial taumbers of Council to ask how the flushing of the

sowers is to be sincomplished under the

koparate system.
